Kahlil Gibran
We live only to discover beauty. All else is a form of waiting.
Rainer Marua Rike
It is also good to love, because love is difficult. For one human being to love another human being, that is perhaps the most difficult task that has been entrusted to us, the ultimate task, the final test and proof, the work for which all other work is merely preparation.
Quirk
If you are not at least a little bit quirky, then you still haven’t found yourself.
Cry
If you don’t cry at least once a month as an adult, then you are missing out. You are not living life to the full – you are not in touch with the beauty, the mystery, the grandeur of human existence.
Oprah Winfrey
Don’t back down just to keep the peace. Standing up for your beliefs builds self-confidence and self-esteem.
Socrates
If all our misfortunes were laid in one common heap whence everyone must take an equal portion, most people would be content to take their own and depart.
Focused on Competing with Yourself
When you take pride in the fact that you’ve beaten your peers or adversaries, you do well to remember: you crossed an imaginary finish line, driving a different car, on a different track in different weather. The real race was always against yourself.
Chinese Proverb
If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help someone else.
Warren Buffet
It is not greed that drives the world, it is envy.
Eyes Wide Open
Dreams are good but best done with eyes wide open. Love on the other hand is best done with eyes tightly shut.
